Would it help to glue the .020 x .020 stock to the .005 styrene sheet? Then cut the 3 inch side strips? Might make it all easier to handle.

This is what I have done:
Cut 0.005" styrene sheet into strips scale 3" wide. This is the base that is glued (carefully too much will distort this thin styrene) and let it cure over night.
Next carefully glue 0.020" x 0.020" strip to the 0.005" and let it cure overnight
Next glue 0.010" x 0.030 strip to complete the "Z"
